The Krebs Cycle. Huh? Don't worry, most of us are unfamiliar with how our body turns food into energy. Sit tight and we'll give you the keys to maximizing your energy levels and how to avoid energy frauds!
In 1937 Hans Adolf Krebs discovered the citric acid cycle (since named the Krebs Cycle). He discovered how cells convert food into energy and then share this energy throughout the body. Hans won a Nobel Prize for his discovery.
Now before we get too technical, let’s define a few terms.
The Krebs Cycle requires fats, proteins and carbohydrates to start. This makes sense because we all know how low energy we get if we go long periods without eating.
The second major component required is vitamins and minerals. Think of the food (fats, proteins, carbs) as the fuel the Krebs Cycle uses, and the vitamins and minerals are the sparks that ignite the fuel and keep the cycle running. As the Krebs Cycle runs it is producing energy, ATP.
Ok that's great! So I just need to eat and this cycle will crank out all the energy I need, right? The vitamins and minerals are in the food I already eat, right?
Wrong.
Most of us are running at an energy deficit no matter how much we eat. The Krebs Cycle requires a healthy balanced diet and supplementation of vitamins and minerals. Otherwise, it cannot run efficiently and produce maximum ATP.
Today's food isn't what it used to be! Processed foods are nearly void of all vitamins and minerals yet they make up 70% of the grocery store! Fresh produce is better but it’s still deficient due to over farming and other practices.
Our food has created an inefficient Krebs Cycle. This energy deficit leads us to a caffeine fix! Caffeine is fake energy. It artificially boosts our perceived energy level and quickly sends us crashing. Our body doesn't require caffeine, ever! I know, some of you may claim caffeine is required in your daily routine. It's not, and this is a way out of it!
Vitality is built around saturating the body with the key vitamins and minerals to keep the Krebs Cycle producing maximum ATP. VIBE is built as an elite meal replacement (fats, proteins, carbs). These two products combine to help maximize your natural energy and keep you going all day strong, without caffeine!
Take the challenge and see for yourself. Use Vitality and VIBE every day for a month. You'll experience increased stamina, improved alertness, better mental focus and restful sleep. You'll love your new normal and forget about your old caffeine habits!
- Krebs Cycle or Citric Acid Cycle is the mechanism each cell uses to create energy.
- Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is the name of the energy produced in the Krebs Cycle.
- Electron Transport System (ETS) is the pathway cells use to disperse ATP after it’s produced.
